A method for controlling an automatically driving vehicle in the region of a crossroads using data recorded by a surroundings recording sensor system is provided. Before reaching the crossroads along a roadway lying ahead of the vehicle until the crossroads are reached, several future vehicle positions are determined as stopping point candidates. For each of the stopping point candidates, a field of vision of the surroundings recording sensor system is predicted considering an elevation profile of a carriageway surface in the region of the crossroads. The stopping point candidate at which the surroundings recording sensor system has the greatest field of vision is selected as the stopping position of the vehicle. At the stopping position, the vehicle surroundings are recorded by the surroundings recording sensor system. Depending on a traffic situation ascertained from the data of the surroundings recording sensor system, the vehicle is automatically steered into the crossroads.
